    Abstract: Foxp3-expressing CD25 + CD4 + regulatory T cells (Tregs) are abundant in tumor tissues. Here, hypothesizing that tumor Tregs would clonally expand after they are activated by tumor-associated antigens to suppress antitumor immune responses, we performed single-cell analysis on tumor Tregs to characterize them by T cell receptor clonotype and gene-expression profiles. We found that multiclonal Tregs present in tumor tissues predominantly expressed the chemokine receptor CCR8. In mice and humans, CCR8 + Tregs constituted 30 to 80% of tumor Tregs in various cancers and less than 10% of Tregs in other tissues, whereas most tumor-infiltrating conventional T cells (Tconvs) were CCR8 – . CCR8 + tumor Tregs were highly differentiated and functionally stable. Administration of cell-depleting anti-CCR8 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) indeed selectively eliminated multiclonal tumor Tregs, leading to cure of established tumors in mice. The treatment resulted in the expansion of CD8 + effector Tconvs, including tumor antigen-specific ones, that were more activated and less exhausted than those induced by PD-1 immune checkpoint blockade. Anti-CCR8 mAb treatment also evoked strong secondary immune responses against the same tumor cell line inoculated several months after tumor eradication, indicating that elimination of tumor-reactive multiclonal Tregs was sufficient to induce memory-type tumor-specific effector Tconvs. Despite induction of such potent tumor immunity, anti-CCR8 mAb treatment elicited minimal autoimmunity in mice, contrasting with systemic Treg depletion, which eradicated tumors but induced severe autoimmune disease. Thus, specific removal of clonally expanding Tregs in tumor tissues for a limited period by cell-depleting anti-CCR8 mAb treatment can generate potent tumor immunity with long-lasting memory and without deleterious autoimmunity.

    Abstract: 224 Background: The combination regimen of TAS-102 and bevacizumab as salvage-line therapy for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) was established based on its high clinical effectiveness (C-TASK FORCE). Recently, our current phase II TAS-CC3 study demonstrated comparable median progression-free survival (PFS: 4.5m) and overall survival (OS: 9.2m) with exclusive inclusion of 3 rd line therapy patients. However, practical predictors for its efficacy are lacking. This study evaluated inflammation-based scores as potential predictors for this combination therapy. Methods: This is a post hoc analysis of investigator-initiated, open-label, single-arm, multicentered phase II study (TAS-CC3) in Japan with 32 mCRC patients treated with the combination therapy. We investigated the predictive and prognostic values of pretreatment blood inflammation-based scores, including neutrophil-to-lymphocyte (NLR), platelet-to-lymphocyte (PLR), and lymphocyte-monocyte ratios (LMR), on disease-control (DC), PFS and OS. These were divided into two groups (high and low) using cut-off of each median values. This study was registered at the University Hospital Medical Information Network, as UMIN#000022438. Results: ROC curve analyses of 3 inflammation-based scores versus DC showed a best predictive performance in LMR, followed by NLR and PLR (AUC: 0.89, 0.85, and 0.68, respectively). The high LMR group had a significantly higher DC rate than the low group (87.5 vs. 43.8%, P= 0.023). Two patients showing partial responses were in the high group. The high LMR group showed significantly longer survivals compared with the low group (4.9 vs. 2.3m, respectively for median PFS, P= 0.014) (20.5 vs. 5.1m, respectively for median OS, P 〈 0.001). The values of LMR were significantly correlated with PFS and OS (r = 0.56: P 〈 0.001 and 0.62: P 〈 0.001, respectively). Conclusions: Pretreatment LMR is a valid predictive and prognostic biomarker for mCRC patients with TAS-102 and bevacizumab treatment and might be clinically useful for selecting patients of the responder. Clinical trial information: 000022438.

    Abstract: 〈 b 〉 〈 i 〉 Introduction: 〈 /i 〉 〈 /b 〉 Regorafenib is a multi-kinase inhibitor approved for patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) who were previously treated with standard therapies. A few reports showed the impact of 〈 i 〉 KRAS 〈 /i 〉 mutation on therapeutic efficacy of regorafenib. Only one study reported poor prognoses for patients treated with regorafenib who had large amounts of circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA). In the present study, we evaluated the impact of 〈 i 〉 KRAS 〈 /i 〉 mutations in tissue or plasma and amounts of cfDNA on prognoses of mCRC patients treated with regorafenib. 〈 b 〉 〈 i 〉 Method: 〈 /i 〉 〈 /b 〉 This is a biomarker investigation of the RECC study, which evaluated efficacy of regorafenib dose-escalation therapy. Plasma samples were obtained just before initiation of treatment with regorafenib. 〈 i 〉 KRAS 〈 /i 〉 mutations were evaluated using tissue and plasma samples. cfDNA was extracted from plasma samples and quantified. 〈 b 〉 〈 i 〉 Results: 〈 /i 〉 〈 /b 〉 Forty-five patients were enrolled in this biomarker study. Median progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of patients without 〈 i 〉 KRAS 〈 /i 〉 mutations in tissues were 1.9 months (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.7–2.0) and 8.9 months (95% CI: 6.5–11.2), and those of patients with 〈 i 〉 KRAS 〈 /i 〉 mutations were 1.4 months (95% CI: 1.3–1.5) and 6.8 months (95% CI: 5.0–8.5). Median PFS and OS of patients with plasma 〈 i 〉 KRAS 〈 /i 〉 mutations were 1.9 months (95% CI: 1.8–1.9) and 7.0 months (95% CI: 5.3–8.7), respectively. Median PFS and OS of patients without plasma 〈 i 〉 KRAS 〈 /i 〉 mutations were 1.7 months (95% CI: 1.1–2.3) and 8.9 months (95% CI: 6.7–11.2), respectively. Prior to administration of regorafenib, 〈 i 〉 KRAS 〈 /i 〉 mutations were detected in 6 of 16 (37.5%) patients who had no tissue 〈 i 〉 KRAS 〈 /i 〉 mutations. Median OS of patients with high cfDNA concentration ( & #x3e;median) was significantly poorer than that of patients with low cfDNA. 〈 b 〉 〈 i 〉 Conclusion: 〈 /i 〉 〈 /b 〉 〈 i 〉 KRAS 〈 /i 〉 mutations in the tissue or plasma have no impact on efficacy of regorafenib. 〈 i 〉 KRAS 〈 /i 〉 emerging mutations were observed in quite a few patients. Large amounts of cfDNA may indicate poorer prognoses for patients receiving late-line regorafenib chemotherapy.

    Abstract: e14511 Background: The efficacy of anti-programmed cell death-1/ligand 1 (anti-PD-(L)1) for active brain metastases (BMs) is not established, because most clinical trials excluded patients (pts) with active BMs such as untreated, symptomatic, or unstable BMs. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of anti-PD-(L)1 monotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) pts with active BMs. Methods: This retrospective study included NSCLC pts who had received anti-PD-(L)1 monotherapy in 2nd or later line between December 2015 and August 2019. Pts who had not evaluated BMs by CT/MRI before anti-PD-(L)1 were excluded. Pts were classified into those with or without active BMs which were defined as untreated or symptomatic BMs or BMs requiring systemic steroids. Progression free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of pts with or without active BMs were compared. Intra-cranial and extra-cranial tumor responses were evaluated in pts with active BMs. Results: In this study, 242 pts who had received anti-PD-(L)1 monotherapy were identified and 197 pts were analyzed. Twenty-four pts were classified to pts with active BMs. Among pts without active BMs, 145 pts had no BMs and 28 pts had treated asymptomatic BMs. PFS of pts with active BMs was significantly shorter than that of pts without active BMs (1.3 versus 2.7 months; p 〈 0.001). OS of pts with active BMs was significantly shorter than that of pts without active BMs (4.5 vs 16.3 months; p = 0.001). Intracranial response rate (RR) was 13.3% (2/15) and extracranial RR was 26.7% (4/15) in pts with active BMs. In multivariate Cox regression analysis, active BM, poor PS and EGFR/ALK(+) were selected as significant factors associated with poor PFS. Active BM and poor PS were selected as significant factors associated with poor OS. Conclusions: Anti-PD-(L)1 monotherapy is not recommend for pts with active BMs.

    Abstract: 4097 Background: In the phase 2 HERB trial (NCCH1805; JMA-IIA00423), T-DXd exhibited promising activity among patients with HER2-positive BTC (ASCO 2022 ab 4006). HER2 positivity was defined as tumor tissue immunohistochemistry (IHC) 3+ or IHC 2+ with in situ hybridization (ISH) positivity. HER2 gene amplification (HER2-amp) can also be detected in ctDNA, which may be an alternative when tumor tissue is not available. ctDNA may also detect tumor molecular changes during treatment and at disease progression. Methods: In this ancillary study, we collected plasma samples for ctDNA analysis (Guardant360) at baseline (BL), day 1 of cycle 2 (C2D1; ie, day 22 of treatment), and end of treatment (EOT). The relationships between clinical outcomes and ctDNA genomic profiles were evaluated. Results: Among the 30 patients in the full analysis set of HERB (22 with HER2-positive and 8 with HER2-low BTC), plasma samples for ctDNA were obtained from 30, 29, and 24 at BL, C2D1, and EOT, respectively. HER2-amp was found in ctDNA of 8 BL samples, all of which were from tissue HER2-positive patients. This included 50% (5 of 10) of the IHC 3+ tumors and 25% (3 of 12) of the IHC 2+/ISH + tumors. Comparing clinical outcomes for patients with HER2-amp in ctDNA (n=8) to those with HER2-positive in tissue (n=22), the confirmed objective response rate (cORR) was 50.0% (95% CI, 15.7–84.3), including all 2 CR cases, vs 36.4% (95% CI, 17.2–59.3); median duration of response was 7.9 (95% CI, 2.8–11.5) vs 7.4 months (95% CI, 2.8–NA), median progression-free survival (PFS) was 6.1 (95% CI, 2.8–20.3) vs 5.1 months (95% CI, 3.0–7.3), and median overall survival was 10.8 (95% CI, 4.7–NA) vs 7.1 months (95% CI, 4.7–14.6). Plasma copy number (median 5.1, range 2.3–9.9) was not associated with response or survival, even after adjusting for maximum variant allele frequency (MAF). Common BL genomic mutations found in ctDNA were in TP53 (n=19, 63%), PIK3CA (n=8, 27%), and TERT (n=7, 23%). No mutation was associated with treatment efficacy. Median MAF decreased from 7.3% at BL to 1.6% at C2D1. Decreased MAF was associated with better response (CR, PR, and SD) and longer PFS. Among 24 EOT samples, including 7 from patients with BL HER2-amp in ctDNA, 10 (42%) acquired potential resistance alterations, most related to receptor tyrosine kinase, MAPK, and PI3K pathways. HER2-amp was lost at EOT in 4 of the 7 patients with HER2-amp detected in BL ctDNA. Conclusions: Using a ctDNA assay, HER2-amp was detected in 36% of patients with tissue HER2-positive BTC. Those with HER2-amp in ctDNA than HER2-positive in tissue had potentially higher cORR and longer survival with TDXd. Clinical trial information: JMA-IIA00423 .

    Abstract: Dissociated responses (DR) are phenomena in which some tumors shrink, whereas others progress during treatment of patients with cancer. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the frequency and prognosis of DR in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients treated with anti-programmed cell death-1/ligand 1 (anti-PD-1/L1) inhibitors. Methods This retrospective study included NSCLC patients who received anti-PD-1/L1 inhibitor as second- or later-line treatment. We excluded patients without radiological evaluation. In patients who showed progressive disease (PD) according to the RECIST 1.1 at the initial CT evaluation, we evaluated all measurable lesions in each organ to identify DR independently of RECIST 1.1. We defined DR as a disease with some shrinking lesions as well as growing or emerging new lesions. Cases not classified as DR were defined as ‘true PD’. Overall survival was compared between patients with DR and those with true PD using Cox proportional hazards models. Results The present study included 62 NSCLC patients aged 27–82 years (median: 65 years). DR and true PD were observed in 11 and 51 patients, respectively. The frequency of DR in NSCLC patients who showed PD to anti-PD-1/L1 was 17.7%. Median overall survival was significantly longer in patients with DR versus true PD (14.0 vs. 6.6 months, respectively; hazard ratio for death: 0.40; 95% confidence interval: 0.17–0.94). Conclusions Patients with DR exhibited a relatively favorable prognosis.

    Abstract: 4006 Background: BTCs have an aggressive tumor biology with limited treatment options. With a HER2-positivity rate of 5–20% in BTCs, case series and small clinical trials have shown signs of activity for HER2 blockade in these pts. T-DXd is an antibody-drug conjugate composed of a humanized monoclonal anti-HER2 antibody, a cleavable linker, and a topoisomerase I inhibitor. The HERB trial is an investigator-initiated, multicenter, single-arm phase 2 trial of T-DXd in pts with HER2-expressing BTCs. Methods: Centrally confirmed HER2-expressing (HER2-positive: IHC3+ or IHC2+/ISH+, and HER2-low-expressing [HER2-low]: IHC/ISH status of 0/+, 1+/-, 1+/+, or 2+/-) pts with BTCs who were refractory or intolerant to gemcitabine containing regimen received 5.4 mg/kg of T-DXd every 3 weeks. The primary endpoint was the confirmed objective response rate (ORR) in HER2-positive pts by independent central review. The sample size of 22 had 80% power with one-sided alpha error of 5%; threshold ORR, 15%; and expected ORR, 40%. The ORR, disease control rate (DCR), progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS) in HER2-positive/-low pts, and incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were assessed as secondary endpoints. Results: A total of 32 pts, 24 with HER2-positive and 8 with HER2-low BTCs, received T-DXd. Twenty-two pts with HER2-positive, excluding 2 ineligible pts, were identified for primary efficacy analysis. Among the 22 pts, IHC3+ and IHC2+/ISH+ were 45.5% and 54.5%, primary sites: gallbladder/extrahepatic/intrahepatic/Vater were 11/6/3/2, median number of prior regimens was 2 (range, 1–4). The confirmed ORR in HER2-positive pts was 36.4% (8/22; 2 CR and 6 PR; 90% CI, 19.6–56.1), indicating statistically significant improvement in ORR (P = 0.01). The DCR, median (m) PFS, mOS were 81.8% (95% CI, 59.7–94.8), 4.4 months (mo) (95% CI, 2.8–8.3), 7.1 mo (95% CI, 4.7–14.6), respectively. In addition, encouraging efficacy were seen even in HER2-low pts; ORR, DCR, mPFS, and mOS were 12.5% (1/8; 1 PR; 95% CI, 0.3–52.7), 75.0% (95% CI, 34.9–96.8), 4.2 mo (95% CI, 1.3–6.2), and 8.9 mo (95% CI, 3.0–12.8), respectively. In the safety analysis set (n = 32), TEAEs of 〉 = grade (G) 3 occurred in 81.3% (26/32); the common TEAEs were anemia (53.1%), neutropenia (31.3%), and leukopenia (31.3%). TEAEs leading to drug discontinuation occurred in 8 pts (25.0%). Eight pts (25.0%) had interstitial lung disease (ILD; G1/G2/G3/G5 were 3/1/2/2) not adjudicated by an independent committee. Conclusions: T-DXd showed promising activity in pts with HER2-expressing BTCs. Although the safety profile was generally consistent with other T-DXd studies, ILD, an important identified risk of T-DXd, requires more careful monitoring and intervention. These results support further exploration of T-DXd in this patient population. Clinical trial information: JMA-IIA00423.

    Abstract: Most patients treated with anaplastic lymphoma kinase ( ALK ) ‐tyrosine kinase inhibitors for ALK ‐positive non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) develop resistance, leading to metastasis, with progression to the central nervous system (CNS) being a primary concern. Although alectinib has better CNS penetration than crizotinib, patients treated with alectinib also develop CNS progression. CNS metastases more likely occurs during crizotinib treatment due to less blood‐brain barrier (BBB) penetration capability than alectinib. CNS progression pattern may be different during crizotinib and alecitinib treatment. Understanding the characteristics of CNS progression is important for developing treatment strategies. Aims We compared the clinical‐radiographic characteristics of CNS metastases among patients undergoing crizotinib and alectinib treatment for ALK ‐positive NSCLCs. Methods and results We retrospectively analyzed the radiographic and clinical characteristics of CNS progression in ALK ‐positive NSCLC patients treated with crizotinib or alectinib at our hospital between July 2011 and May 2020. CNS and systemic tumor progression were evaluated using computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging. Fifty‐three and 65 patients were treated with crizotinib and alectinib, respectively. Baseline CNS metastasis was observed in 18 and 27 patients in the crizotinib and alectinib groups, respectively. Among the patients in the crizotinib and alectinib groups who developed disease progression, 15/49 (30.6%) and 9/44 (20.5%) had CNS progression, respectively ( P  = .344). Intra‐CNS progression‐free survival was significantly longer in the alectinib group than in the crizotinib group (median: 14.0 vs 5.6 months, P  = .042). The number of CNS metastases sized ≥3 cm, rate of peritumoral brain edema, and the second progression pattern after treatment continuation was not significantly different between the groups. Conclusion We observed no significant difference in the clinical‐radiographic characteristics of CNS progression between patients undergoing crizotinib and alectinib treatments. Local therapy, including stereotactic radiosurgery, for CNS progression may be suitable and important following alectinib and crizotinib treatment.
